Over the last decade, we have witnessed a growing dependency on information technologyresultingina wide rangeofnew opportunities. Clearly,ithas become almost impossible to imagine life without a personal computer or laptop, or without a cell phone. Social network sites (SNS) are competing with face-- face encounters and may even oust them. Most SNS-adepts have hundreds of “friends”, happily sharing pictures and pro?les and endless chitchat. We are on the threshold of the Internet of Things, where every object will have its RFID-tag. This will not only e?ect companies, who will be able to optimize their production and delivery processes, but also end users, who will be able to enjoy many ...
A successor to the popular Artech House title Information Hiding Techniques for Steganography and Digital Watermarking, this comprehensive and up-to-date new resource gives the reader a thorough review of steganography, digital watermarking and media fingerprinting with possible applications to modern communication, and a survey of methods used to hide information in modern media. This book explores Steganography, as a means by which two or more parties may communicate using invisible or subliminal communication. "Steganalysis" is described as methods which can be used to break steganographic communication. This comprehensive resource also includes an introduction to watermarking and its methods, a means of hiding copyright data in images and discusses components of commercial multimedia applications that are subject to illegal use. This book demonstrates a working knowledge of watermarking’s pros and cons, and the legal implications of watermarking and copyright issues on the Internet.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 27th International Conference on Computer Networks, CN 2020, held in June 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. The 14 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 34 submissions. They are organized according to the topical sections on computer networks; cybersecurity and quality of service; queueing theory and queueing networks.
This series is directed to diverse managerial professionals who are leading the transformation of individual domains by using expert information and domain knowledge to drive decision support systems (DSSs). The series offers a broad range of subjects addressed in specific areas such as health care, business management, banking, agriculture, environmental improvement, natural resource and spatial management, aviation administration, and hybrid applications of information technology aimed to interdisciplinary issues. This book series is composed of three volumes: Volume 1 consists of general concepts and methodology of DSSs; Volume 2 consists of applications of DSSs in the biomedical domain; Volume 3 consists of hybrid applications of DSSs in multidisciplinary domains. The book is shaped upon decision support strategies in the new infrastructure that assists the readers in full use of the creative technology to manipulate input data and to transform information into useful decisions for decision makers.

From Distributed Quantum Computing to Quantum Internet Computing Understand the future of the internet with this accessible guide Quantum computing, which draws upon the principles of quantum mechanics to perform computing functions unrestricted by the binary language of ordinary computing, has developed with extraordinary speed in recent years. Progress in quantum computing and its related technological subfields, including quantum internet, has been rapid enough to suggest that we are living in a “new Quantum Age.” To understand the future of the internet, it’s now essential to understand the present and future of quantum computing and quantum internet computing. This book provides a...
This book overviews the drivers behind the smart city vision, describes its dimensions and introduces the reference architecture. It further enumerates and classifies threats targeting the smart city concept, links corresponding attacks, and traces the impact of these threats on operations, society and the environment. This book also introduces analytics-driven situational awareness, provides an overview of the respective solutions and highlights the prevalent limitations of these methods. The research agenda derived from the study emphasizes the demand and challenges for developing holistic approaches to transition these methods to practice equipping the user with extensive knowledge regard...

This exciting resource introduces the core technologies that are used for Internet messaging. The book explains how Signal protocol, the cryptographic protocol that currently dominates the field of end to end encryption (E2EE) messaging, is implemented and addresses privacy issues related to E2EE messengers. The Signal protocol and its application in WhatsApp is explored in depth, as well as the different E2EE messengers that have been made available in the last decade are also presented, including SnapChat. It addresses the notion of self-destructing messages (as originally introduced by SnapChat) and the use of metadata to perform traffic analysis. A comprehensive treatment of the underpin...
